Josep M. Porta received the degree in Computer Science in 1994, and the Ph.D. degree in Artificial Intelligence in 2001, both from the UPC. From 2001 to 2003 he held a postdoctoral position at the University of Amsterdam, doing research in robot localization using vision. Currently, he is an Associate Researcher at the Institut de Robòtica i Informàtica Industrial (IRI, CSIC-UPC) and his current research interests include planning under uncertainty and computational kinematics.
